So This Is Where You Live

(response to Ntozake Shange's 'i live in music' So this is where you live? In such an eclectic place Full of cascades of cadences And rich in thick, harmonic melodies Is there room for more here? Can I live here too with you? I love the keyboard steps The constant movement there In lovely motion To the command of percussion and strings Become a muse of music I have never met any like you Who give up the beauty of this earth To reside here In music
